The MySQL Connector/NET is for Microsoft C#/.NET, not for Java, so you cannot install MySQL Connector/NET and use it from IntelliJ. You need to use MySQL Connector/J, and you don't 'install' it. If you want to use it from within IntelliJ itself, you don't need to install anything, IntelliJ has it included (or will download it when needed).

If you want to use it from a program you write in IntelliJ, you will need to add a dependency to your pom.xml (Maven), or build.gradle (Gradle), or manually add a library to your project (if you're not using a build tool), see How to add external library in IntelliJ IDEA?.
